Abstract
The cooling rate is an important factor affecting the quality of refrigerated fried rice. The effect of the cooling rate (0.16 °C/min, 0.78 °C/min, 1.66 °C/min) on the retrogradation properties of dry-steamed fried rice during the refrigeration period (0–3 d) was investigated. The increased cooling rate from 0.16 to 1.66 °C/min led to a weakening of stability of the fried rice gel and an increase in the loss of moisture content of the fried rice from 0.86% to 7.11% after 3 d of refrigeration. The cooling rate of 0.78 °C/min slowed the increase in hardness of fried rice and resulted in a lower short-range ordering (0.85) as well as the least increase in relative crystallinity (9.51%) after 3 d of refrigeration. However, a cooling rate of 1.66 °C/min resulted in a crispy texture and the worst sensory quality of the fried rice after reheating. Both the 0.16 °C/min and the 1.66 °C/min cooling rates increased the viscosity and reduced the thermal stability of the fried rice paste system. In contrast, a cooling rate of 0.78 °C/min is the most suitable cooling rate for refrigerated dry-steamed fried rice. These results will be of guiding significance for regulating the regrowth of dry-steamed fried rice by changing the cooling rate.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Cereal Science was established in 1983 to provide an International forum for the publication of original research papers of high standing covering all aspects of cereal science related to the functional and nutritional quality of cereal grains (true cereals - members of the Poaceae family and starchy pseudocereals - members of the Amaranthaceae, Chenopodiaceae and Polygonaceae families) and their products, in relation to the cereals used. The journal also publishes concise and critical review articles appraising the status and future directions of specific areas of cereal science and short communications that present news of important advances in research. The journal aims at topicality and at providing comprehensive coverage of progress in the field.
